[As presented in this chapter, the law says that if a woman accuses
her husband of being impotent, the judge shall set a probationary period
of one year for him to prove that it is not true, and if he fails, she
can obtain a permanent separation on those grounds. A curious provision
in the chapter makes a distinction between castrated men and eunuchs, giving
"eunuchs" the same rights as "impotent men", while taking those same rights
away from "castrated men." This type of distinction is familiar from the
Roman laws almost a thousand years before.]

... And if he is a castrated man [majboob], there shall be an
immediate separation between them, if she wishes, because there is no use
in waiting. And as for a eunuch [khasee], they shall wait as they
wait for an impotent man ['ineen], because there is hope that he
can have sexual intercourse with her.
